      I dont think so. It has been tried many times, those runs are not that uncommon, and you can find plenty of videos with helmet mounted gopros. Thing is you cant see as much as you think from such an angle. It would likely be a mixture of snow and the tip of his skis and sky and nothing else.

      Never really understood the fascination of this type of skiing.
      First you walk up a huge mountain.
      Second, you enjoy the view which can be seen from many ski resorts.
      Third you race down a steep part where the risk for avalanche is high.

    Many years ago, I skied all the famous mountain ski areas all over the world, and even heli-skied a couple of times, but NOT to the extent I see in the above video! Avalanches are deadly and take lives every year. There are places where they shoot cannons off to break off those ice shelves and snow banks, but it can still be dangerous. I know I wouldn't chance it now -- as you age, you take less chances with your life! I would never ski off a giant cliff like they do now -- for one things, I have a great respect for heights and have always had acrophobia since I was a child, have had to deal with it and overcome it at times, but you never completely get over it. I learned to fly years ago and it helped a lot, but that motor under you really helps! I still can't stand on the edge of something really high with no rail, because you get that feeling that it's going to pull you off and down!

      +Tom Tom That depends. For us mere mortals, it's suicide. But for people pushing the limit, it's the rush that they're searching for. I've certainly seen it as improved with my skiing these past 2 years. There were lines I would never had ridden 2 years ago but I'm quite comfortable now. :)

      That's the difference. There are lines that seem crazy when you^re not good enough that become enjoyable when you progress...But here he's obviously touching his limits (which are indeed very impressive). What we see here is not joy and pleasure. The guy certainly had an adrenaline rush and has been very happy to have gone through but that is not pleasure!
      I know I've had that feeling many times, when you thought before "Hey let's do that off-piste couloir, it looks so fucking good" and when 10 min. later you're in the middle of a 45 degrees slope with very heavy snow, you're tired and you can only do jump turn and you think "ok let's get done with it so that I can enjoy myself again". It's a challenge, not pleasure!

    this is one of the sickest, scariest things ive ever seen. He almost slides too far down the inital drop on the approach, and getting the second ski up onto that little hummockis sooooo dicey. I cant believe he looked down on this line and thought "Ill side slide down to that hump the ski down to that little serac then walk to the edge...." Just getting to the drop in is incredibly grippy!
